Woodlawn Animal Hospital - (773) 288-3744

Woodlawn Animal Hospital is a veterinary hospital that provides prevention and treatment options for medical, surgical and dental care for your dog or cat.

Woodlawn Animal Hospital, Ltd. (WAH) was founded on
March 1, 1995 by Dr. Allyson J. Harris. Formerly named Sweeney Animal Hospital, (under different management), the facility that now houses WAH has been a fixture in the Woodlawn community for over 90+ years! Woodlawn Animal Hospital is a full-service veterinary hospital including a pharmacy, surgery suite, in house laboratory, on-site x-ray capabilities and a supervised recovery area.



Dr. Harris' dream is to bring quality veterinary medicine and animal related services to an under served, but highly deserving community. A place where she can combine her passions veterinary medicine, client education and outstanding customer service. She wants her clients to think of her as a "partner" in the pursuit of their pet's overall health and well being.


And her "no non-sense" approach to this "partnership" is her signature! She tells clients, "We HAVE to do this together!" She also wants to set an example for young people. That no matter their circumstance, they can fully achieve any goal they set! It just takes hard work, integrity, and an "over comers" attitude!! She always tells them "Don't let your situation define you, define your situation!!"

Our Mission Statement:
"Partnering with pet owners to provide the highest quality professional veterinary care and services through all life stages"

Our Vision Statement:
To be a "light" in the Woodlawn neighborhood...a beacon for those Chicagoland clients desiring a veterinary experience with quality medicine and compassionate care.
